About this study

To adjust our forearm model for ischemia reperfusion injury, in order to used it for assessment of ischemia reperfusion damage in elderly and patients.

To test the effect of ischemic postconditioning on ischemia reperfusion injury in healthy volunteers, using Annexin binding after repetitive handgripping.

Read the detailed description

Recently, ischemic postconditioning has been identified as a protective intervention against ischemia-reperfusion injury. In animal studies, the signalling pathway of this (impressive) protective phenomenon is very similar to ischemic preconditioning. It opens a new avenue of post-reperfusion interventions with drugs that have been shown to mimic ischemic preconditioning. Before we can study this phenomenon in our forearm ischemia-reperfusion model, we need additional validating experiments. The purpose of this study proposal is to provide these data.

  • repetitive short ischemia and reperfusion of non dominant fore arm after 10 minute ischemic exerciseProcedure or surgery

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Annexin A 5 targeting in the non dominant thenar muscle after (ischemic exercise), as a indicator for ischemia reperfusion injury.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Workload during (ischemic) exercise.

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted1 Mar 2007 (estimated)
  2. Study startOct 2007
  3. Study completionDec 2007 (estimated)

Why it stopped: new insights have let us to expect marginal annexin targeting with a 10 minutes delay between reperfusion and administration of Annexin A5

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing repetitive short ischemia and reperfusion of non dominant fore arm after 10 minute ischemic exercise in people with Cardiovascular Disease and Ischemia-reperfusion Injury, run by Radboud University Medical Center at 1 site in Netherlands.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Nov 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Netherlands. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Annexin A 5 targeting in the non dominant thenar muscle after (ischemic exercise), as a indicator for ischemia reperfusion injury.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00441714, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Nov 2015.
